Technical Requirements

To ensure a smooth and successful exam experience, candidates should carefully review and confirm they can meet the following requirements before beginning the enrollment process.

Identification Requirements

Candidates must create exam accounts in multiple systems. The name on each account must exactly match the photo ID. If names differ, the proctor cannot start the exam.

Use your full legal name, avoid nicknames, and check spelling and capitalization. Contact Biotility at biotilitycs@research.ufl.edu if your name includes special characters, such as hyphens or suffixes, or differs from your ID.

Acceptable ID Requirement: Valid, original government- or school-issued photo ID

On-Site Testing: Additional Requirements

The Site Coordinator is responsible for collaborating closely with their institution’s technical staff to ensure that all requirements outlined in this document are fully met. To prevent any access issues, Biotility strongly recommends that the Site Coordinator and technical staff conduct a thorough verification of candidate access to UF e-Learning (UFEL) from the computer lab testing room and/or personal computers at least one month prior to candidates accessing the online content.
